“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drank, I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams.

Not making the list (because I don't like their beers overall) is AB-InBev...but they do get a begrudging honorable mention because a couple of their specialty "craft" beers are actually very worthy and I enjoy them from time to time. (do I need to duck after saying that??)

I agree some their "craft" beers are very good, much like some of Coors offshoot craft brews

In the number one spot:a tie: Boulevard, Sierra NevadaDeschutes almost makes it a 3 way tie, but they brewed the abomination known as the Abyss.Other than these 3 I really don't run across breweries whose entire portfolio appeals to me.

Dry Dock is great, I have recently discovered them. I really enjoy the brew hut for my homebrew supplies. only draw in terms of supplies is its a 30min drive for me to get to the neck of the woods, and also you have to navigate the tech center .

I think that my favorite list could easily go up to 20 regular breweries that i drink, but i tried to pick breweries that i liked all their beers or almost all.
